The stifling heat in the room makes it feel like New Orleans. Call it another layer of immersion as I don the Oculus Rift headset and play a preview of The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners. It's a new virtual reality project from Skybound Entertainment and Skydance Interactive.

Unlike most VR experiences though, it has the feel of a full-fledged game. Guy Costantini, vice president of marketing at Skydance, said the Saints & Sinners will take about 15 hours to complete going through the main quest, but the first-person survival game features so many gameplay wrinkles that players can spend longer in the world.
